Little Kaiteriteri Rose's bach -3min walk to beach

10/10 Excellent

"Great spot"

Castles Motel and Driftwood Motel

8/10 Good

"We booked as we had stayed here before. Price was a factor as we only stating 1 night. Were on Driftwood Motel side vs Castles side which rooms aren't as flash. We stayed in unit 9 (access studio unit). Was basic setup. Suited us for the 1 night stay & price was relevant to room type. Setup like an apartment type vs typical Motel setup. Had key left under mat & had clear comms via text & app. As only onsite 10am-3pm (as per info on site). Enjoysble stay. Close to multiple fast food or restaurants & bars. Highly recommend Smugglers Restaurant & Bar & Sprig & Fern. Can just chill & see several bars/restaurants within ealking distance. Beach close by too."

Kimi Ora Eco Resort

8/10 Good

"Room up on the hill was great. Clean with great views. There was some confusion about leaving luggage with the front desk before check in since we had a trip before check in time and despite me emailing them earlier and them agreeing to it but once that confusion was sorted, rest was fine. Had dinner (vegetarian options only) but it was good. Service was excellent. Breakfast options could be better. Free parking space outside room was good. There was a very loud concert nearby which was playing loud music till 2130 and started again at 0700 next day but not the fault of Kimi Ora and to be fait to them, they emailed us a couple of days before to warn us and so didn't have any time to change the booking but to be fair, it didn't bother us too much. The staff were very apologetic. Overall enjoyed out stay."

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Motueka Valley?

The best area to stay in Motueka Valley is along the Motueka River, particularly around the townships of Ngatimoti and Brooklyn, for a tranquil and authentic experience.

This area is characterised by its rural setting, with rolling hills, orchards, and vineyards. The Motueka River is a key feature, offering opportunities for fishing and swimming. Accommodation here often consists of private lodges, guesthouses, and boutique stays, providing a high level of comfort and service. The main road, Motueka Valley Highway, runs through the heart of this region, connecting the small communities.

Couples seeking a peaceful retreat will find this area particularly appealing. The seclusion and natural beauty offer a great backdrop for relaxation. Many lodges provide private decks with views of the valley or river, and local activities often include wine tasting at nearby vineyards or scenic walks.

For those who enjoy outdoor pursuits, Ngatimoti is an excellent base. It's close to access points for the Kahurangi National Park, offering numerous hiking and trekking trails.

When is the best time to go to Motueka Valley?

The best time to visit Motueka Valley is during the summer months, from December to February, when the weather is warm and sunny, great for outdoor activities.

During this period, you can expect long, bright days with average temperatures around 20-25°C. This makes it ideal for exploring the Great Taste Trail by bike, kayaking on the Motueka River, or enjoying the local vineyards. Families will find this time particularly good as the warm weather allows for comfortable outdoor adventures and swimming in the river or at nearby beaches like Kaiteriteri.

The shoulder seasons, March to May (autumn) and September to November (spring), also offer pleasant conditions with fewer crowds. Autumn brings beautiful changing colours to the valley, and spring sees the fruit orchards in bloom. These times are great for couples looking for a quieter experience, perhaps enjoying scenic walks or visiting local artisan studios without the peak season bustle.
